Jessica's Contract With SM Entertainment Terminated

Jessica Jung's contract with SM Entertainment was terminated on August 6th. The agency released a statement today, confirming the news and shedding some light on the situation."After much discussion with Jessica, we have decided it best for both party’s future developments to go each other’s way. Please cheer for Jessica who is going to star on a new path," the agency said in a statement.

In September of 2014, Jessica was forced out of Girls' Generation, which shocked the fans. The contract termination seems to have been a mutual agreement between the two parties.

Prior to the member being kicked out, all members had renewed their contracts with SM Entertainment until 2016.

After SM Entertainment's statement, Jessica released one of her own.

"Hello, This is Jessica. I would like to let everyone
know that I have officially terminated my contract with SM after much
discussion and both parties have decided to officially go on each
other’s way. I cherish all the time I spent with SM and wish the best
for the company. I would like to thank all the fans for your love and
support. I will also do my best to live up to my fans expectations. I
would like to ask you to watch over my new beginning."
